Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the nature of dew, challenging the long-held belief that it is solely the result of condensation from the atmosphere onto cold surfaces. The author presents evidence to suggest that dew forms through the evaporation of moisture from the ground, which then rises and condenses on cooler surfaces near the earth. The book explores the complex interplay between radiation, heat transfer, and plant physiology in the formation of dew. By examining the temperature variations of soil, air, and plant surfaces, the author demonstrates that dew is often most abundant when the ground is warmer than the air above it, contradicting the traditional view that dew forms due to cold surfaces condensing moisture from the air. The book provides a fresh perspective on a common natural phenomenon, offering insights into the role of the earth's surface and plant life in the water cycle. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334277740_0
